Always been against spreading exploits and spoke it out. Lately i feel though as if my fraction is taking it too far really.

The problem is Cpomb spread not any other combination. People dont care much anymore what kind of cas skill they want to remove it seems. I dont like this attitude.

Hmm...


Give a potion to an abandoned race team (not coach) at each 100 game milestone. Give one to any other non CPOMB teamd at 150 or 200.

Let a team only hold a max of two potions at a time.

Edit: Would still like the nerfs though.

Very Happy

Introduce a major qualifier, much like the GLT, where you qualify based on number of games played. R has an incentive to keep a team around and grow it - B encourages retiring a team and starting over as soon as you get your first horrific game.

Not a bad idea. Though it would need to 100 or 200.

The problem is it probably still wouldn't work. People could still just run their non CPOMB or abandoned race teams for 15-20 games then restart them.
That doesn't help us much as diversity among the young teams doesn't seem bad at all.

It is when you want your team to be long lived that you are better off going CPOMB.

I don't know how many people really care that much about CR. I suspect not enough to make any real difference.

Play the Box as you want to play it. You can't expect everyone to want to play it your way.

If you want the power to dictate how things work, you need to be in [L]eague. Twisted Evil

Edit: The original proposal doesn't do much about people who don't use CPOMB but are just plain depressing to play against. Wink

You can sign up here to be a full member:

But all you really need to do is play an abandoned race.

(Current standings now updated)

How about this idea: Only way to play Box is to activate maybe 4 different teams which are all different race and then matchmaking will be much more versatile Mr. Green

Or something similar

I think certain skills should only be unlocked by a $5 donation to the site.

claw

each time you want to select those, you must first donate. That way, you are supporting the site too.

What about giving bonus CR to coaches playing uncommon/low win rate teams, like stunties?

You already do. As far as I am aware racial modifiers are included in the cr formula already.

The problem with any B major requiring a number of games to enter is that to get to that number of games in B you really have to be a clawpomb team or build solely to counter clawpomb and hope to get, and remain, lucky. All it would do imho is mean even more clawpomb teams.

The only real solution is to play teams for 5-10 games then retire and repeat. Diversity at such low levels isn't ideal, buts it's far healthier than over 1500 where B just becomes a cess pit.

B is what it is, find a way of gaming with its nature known, or play R. Increasingly I see people doing both. Leave the clawpombers to each other.
